Ja Morant's emphatic return and a stretch of home games has the Memphis Grizzlies primed for a late November run.

Grizzlies head coach Taylor Jenkins revealed they will have a minute-conscious approach with Morant.“Definitely be smart … but not that restrictive,” Jenkins said.As it stands, Morant is already playing far fewer minutes this season compared to other seasons.

Ja Morant had 22 points and 11 assists in his return to the lineup after missing eight games with a hip injury, leading the Memphis Grizzlies to a 123-98 victory over the Portland Trail Blazers
